Well, it's come to this: It's midnight and I'm listening to a heavy metal cover version of "The Wheels On The Bus Go Round and Round" on pirate short wave radio on Sternradio. Is life great, or what!?

Listening via the SDR in Shrewsbury, Vermont, which is receiving an S9 signal but only fair audio amid the noise on the band ...

0108 UTC: "Time Waits for No One" by Ambrosia.
0109 UTC: "Day After Day (The Show Must Go On)" by The Alan Parsons Project.
0113 UTC: "Life in Dark Water" by Al Stewart.
0118 UTC: Female-voiced talking, but I couldn't make it out through the noise, which led to her giving the WDEF ID.
0119 UTC: "Church" by Bob Welch.
0122 UTC: "A Tear Can Tell" by Bill LaBounty.
0125 UTC: "White Lightning and Wine" by Heart.
0129 UTC: "Help Me" by Joni Mitchell.

Thanks for the music tonight, WDEF!
